MidEast Web's cofounder and webmaster Ami Isseroff was born Sunday, April 14, 1946 and died Wednesday, June 29, 2011. His friends and family, and many around the world who were inspired by his work, mourn this great loss.

We hope to be able to maintain and carry on the impressive work Ami did on MidEast Web and elsewhere. This website will stay online for the next three years at least, and hopefully until peace finds the Middle East, which might take a little longer. [more]
